    As the question states would you date an asexual? Note:This is not an hate thread. Do not hate on any asexual or anything/anybody here. Don't crap up the thread.

    I would date one as I don't have to much of a sex drive. So it wouldn't bother me. I'd be more than happy to date an asexual and prefer it. No sexual attraction to me or anyone for that matter, yay!

    No.

    I need sex.
    It's a vital part of my life.
    On it's own, it's very good fun, but combined with a relationship and actual affection, it's a grand gift from nature.

    I couldn't make due without.
    And I suppose he or she wouldn't be fine with me getting it elsewhere.

    Nope. My sex drive is way too high.

    No, I would not. I'm not a "sex fiend", but I do have a sex drive and sex is a part of a relationship for me and I would expect it. So I would not want to be in a relationship with someone who did not want to do anything sexual with me.

    Keep in mind these "would you date X" threads often don't go too well.

    Depends. I would if they are a great person and have no problem with me solving my desires on my own.

    I'd date anyone worth it, but I'd only go for a relationship if my asexual partner accepts that I'll look for the sex I want/need elsewhere. I'd have no problem respecting his/her asexuality, but he/she/it should have no problems respecting my sexuality.
     
  8. It really does depend. If they're willing to do the deed, I guess that's fine; I wouldn't be able to date someone that's completely repulsed by it, though.

    In other words, go away Trall.



    I wouldn't though. Don't really understand them. It's just no sex? Do they mind if I like hug them? Or kiss them? I'm a touchy person. I like touching and feeling things.

    Edit: I'm alright with the no sex, I just want to be able to hug and kiss. That's alright by me.

    I probably would in my current circumstances because I'm too uncomfortable with my body to do anything sexual anyways, but when I'm older and post-transition that might change so I don't know

    It depends on the person. Some love hugs and kisses, some don't mind them, some dont want to hug and kiss. Anyone, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

    I could manage it. As high as my sex drive seems to be, I can easily be distracted by shiny things.

    It wouldn't bother me. I could never picture myself being a hyper sexual person, so unless that changes at some point, it wouldn't really matter as long as we could be touchy-feely in general.

    I've gone 28 years without sex, what is another 28? Ideally, I'd like to experience sexual relations at least once, but if it does not happen, in some regard, I would be okay with that.

    I assume, before I dated the asexual in question, that I would get to know them, and make a more sound decision from that. If I really got along with them, and it was okay between the two of us, then sure, yeah, I could.




    "But Kaiser, that sounds too idealistic. And besides, that's just dating -- what about a longer-term relationship, or even marriage?"

    This is very true. I will admit, there would always be that curiosity, in the back of my mind. But we all have our vices, right? I could deal with it, and I assume I would handle it fairly well, if we lasted for quite a while.

    Ideally, I'd talk to my partner, if the need/curiosity for sexual gratification comes up, and see what our options are. Realistically, it would be a nominal factor, but nothing crippling.




    Short answer: Yes, I could date somebody that was asexual. But the moment it became 'serious', there would be a checkpoint/talk; and from there, an appropriate decision made.

    Well, here we go.

    Yes, I would. I don't see any problems. As long as it would involve cuddling and kissing. Actually, that would be the best relationship ever.
